  • Each transmitter 30 measures the conditions of the corresponding tire 20, i.e., the air pressure and temperature in the corresponding tire 20, to obtain data including air pressure data and temperature data, and transmits the data to the receiver 40 by wireless communication.
  • the receiver 40 is mounted in a predetermined place on the vehicle body 11 and operates, for example, by power from a battery (not shown) of the vehicle 10.
  • the receiver 40 has one receiving antenna 41, which is connected to the receiver 40 by a cable 42.

  • the transmission controller 31 counts the number of measurements made by the pressure sensor 32 and the temperature sensor 33. Each time a predetermined number of measurements (forty measurements in this embodiment) is reached, the transmission controller 31 controls the transmitting circuit 34 to perform the transmitting operation.
  • the measurement time interval t1 of measurements made by the pressure sensor 32 and the temperature sensor 33 is ordinarily determined to be fifteen seconds. Accordingly, the transmission controller 31 controls the transmitting circuit 34 to perform the transmitting operation at transmission time intervals set in advance, e.g., intervals of ten minutes (15 sec. ⁇ 40), as shown in Fig. 3. A time t3 shown in Fig.

  • the measurement time interval t1 and the transmission time interval t4 are determined, for example, by considering the capacity of the battery 36, the power consumption of the transmitter 30, and the measuring operation time t2 and the transmitting operation time t3 of the transmitter 30. For instance, it has been confirmed that the life of the battery 36 is 10 years or longer in a case where the battery 36 used has a capacity of 1000 mAh, and where the measurement time interval t1 is fifteen seconds and the transmission time interval t4 is ten minutes.
  • the transmission controller 31 controls the transmitting circuit 34 to perform the transmitting operation at the above-described constant transmission time intervals t4 (first time intervals) (in a normal mode). However, when the transmission controller 31 determines on the basis of temperature data from the temperature sensor 33 that a mode change condition set in advance is satisfied, it effects a transition from the normal mode to a temperature compensation mode.
  • the mode change condition is an increase in temperature in the tire 20.
  • the transmission controller 31 controls the transmitting circuit 34 to perform the transmitting operation at time intervals (second time intervals) shorter than the transmission time interval t4 in the normal mode and equal to or longer than the measurement time interval t1.
  • time intervals second time intervals
  • the operating mode of the transmitter 30 is changed to a first temperature compensation mode when the value of data of the temperature measured by the temperature sensor 33 is equal to or higher than a predetermined first threshold temperature (e.g., forty degrees C) and lower than a second threshold temperature (e.g., eighty degrees C) while the transmitter 30 is operating in the normal mode.
  • a predetermined first threshold temperature e.g., forty degrees C
  • a second threshold temperature e.g., eighty degrees C
  • the operating mode of the transmitter 30 is changed to a second temperature compensation mode.
  • the predetermined second threshold temperature e.g. eighty degrees C
  • the predetermined first threshold temperature e.g. forty degrees C
  • the transmitter 30 operates in one of the normal mode, the first temperature compensation mode and the second temperature compensation mode by comparing the value of data of the temperature measured by the temperature sensor 33 with the predetermined threshold temperatures.
  • the receiver 40 has a receiving circuit 45 and a reception controller 44 for processing data received through the receiving antenna 41.
  • the reception controller 44 constituted by a microcomputer or the like has, for example, a CPU, a ROM and a RAM.
  • the receiving circuit 45 receives data transmitted from each transmitter 30 through the receiving antenna 41.
  • the receiving circuit 45 demodulates and decodes the received data and supplies the demodulated data to the reception controller 44.
  • the reception controller 44 determines, on the basis of the received data, the air pressure and the temperature in the tire 20 corresponding to the transmitter 30 that has transmitted the data.
  • the reception controller 44 controls the display device 50 to display the data on the air pressure and the temperature.
  • the reception controller 44 controls the display device 50 to display a warning.
  • the receiver 40 starts up, for example, by switching on the key switch (not shown) of the vehicle 10.
  • step S1 the transmission controller 31 controls the temperature sensor 33 to perform the measuring operation at measurement time intervals t1 (intervals of fifteen seconds in this embodiment).
  • the temperature sensor 33 measures the temperature in the tire 20 to obtain data on the temperature and outputs the temperature data to the transmission controller 31.
  • the transmission controller 31 advances the process to step S2.
  • step S2 the transmission controller 31 makes a determination as to whether or not the value of data of the temperature in the tire 20 measured by the temperature sensor 33 is lower than the first threshold temperature (e.g., forty degrees C). If YES in step S2, that is, the value of data on the temperature in the tire 20 is lower than the first threshold temperature (e.g., forty degrees C), the transmission controller 31 advances the process to step S3. In step S3, the transmission controller 31 controls the transmitting circuit 34 to perform the transmitting operation once every ten minutes (normal mode).
  • the first threshold temperature e.g. forty degrees C
  • step S6 the transmission controller 31 controls the transmitting circuit 34 perform the transmitting operation thrice every ten minutes (at third time intervals) (second temperature compensation mode), more specifically once every 10/3 minutes.
  • This embodiment has advantages as described below.
  • the transmission controller 31 compares the value of data on the temperature in the tire 20 measured by the temperature sensor 33 and determines the number of times the transmitting circuit 34 performs the transmitting operation per each ten minute cycle. For example, when the temperature in the tire 20 rises to become equal to or higher than a threshold temperature, the number of times the transmitting circuit 34 performs the transmitting operation per each ten minute cycle is increased. The possibility that the receiver 40 fails to receive data from the transmitter 30, depending on the position of the transmitter 30 at the time of transmission, is thereby reduced. In other words, the reduction in the reception probability of the receiver 40 is limited even when the transmission power of the transmitter 30 is reduced due to an increase in the temperature in the tire 20. Thus, it is possible to provide the transmitter 30 designed by considering the temperature dependence.
  • the transmission time interval in the first or second temperature compensation mode (in the case of performing transmission once every five minutes or every 10/3 minutes) is shorter than the transmission time interval in the normal mode (in the case of performing transmission once every ten minutes). Also, the transmission time interval in the second temperature compensation mode (in the case of performing transmission once every 10/3 minutes) is shorter than the transmission time interval in the first temperature compensation mode (in the case of performing transmission once every five minutes). Therefore, the possibility of the distance between the transmitter 30 and the receiving antenna 41 being shorter than a predetermined distance is increased and the reduction in the reception probability of the receiver 40 can be limited even when the transmission output of the transmitter 30 is reduced due to an increase in the temperature in the tire 20. Thus, it is possible to provide the transmitter 30 designed by considering the temperature dependence.
  • the method of controlling the transmitting circuit 34 to perform the transmitting operation twice as often per each ten minute cycle in the first temperature compensation mode may be modified such that the transmitting operation is continuously performed, rather than twice as often per each ten minute cycle. That is, the transmitting operation may be performed all the time rather than being performed twice as often per each ten minute cycle. The same can also be said with respect to the second temperature compensation mode.
  • a predetermined threshold temperature e.g., one hundred and twenty degrees C
  • data indicating that the temperature in the tire 20 is abnormally high may be transmitted to the receiver 40.
  • the vehicle in which the apparatus of the present invention is used is not limited to four-wheel vehicles.
  • the above-described embodiment may be applied to two-wheel vehicles, such as bicycles and motor cycles, multi-wheel vehicles, such as buses and trailers, vehicles for industrial use having tires 20 (e.g., forklift trucks), etc.
